My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife

Having witnessed the deaths of their Great Ancestor and Demon Monarch, the demonic beasts that had been laying siege to Five-Poison City scattered and fled. Not a single one remained. as they knew that if they ran too slow, they would be killed.

Upon the walls of Five-Poison City, the self-cultivators watched the demonic beasts flee, not one of them daring to stay. Their eyes filled with joy.

They knew that, once these demonic beasts fled, they wouldn’t attack self-cultivators in the city anymore. This meant that they could all survive.

With the death of the Nine-headed Saint Lion Avatar, the saint level prestige dissipated. Self-cultivators in the Five-Poison City all found that they could now move and speak.

“Qingfeng Li is incredible! He actually killed both the Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar and the Golden Lion Demon Monarch!”

“I’ll say it now, Qingfeng Li is definitely the number one devil of the Devil Rankings!”

“Are you insane? How is Qingfeng Li a devil? He’s a great hero!”

All around, self-cultivators chattered among themselves. they looked to Qingfeng Li with eyes filled with admiration.

When some self-cultivators referred to Qingfeng Li as a devil, those around them quickly retaliated.

In the minds of all self-cultivators in Five-Poison City, Qingfeng Li was a world-class hero. He had saved all of their lives. Some of the female self-cultivators looked at Qingfeng Li like he was a knight in shining armor.

Xiaomei and her sister also stood among the crowd. They had witnessed Qingfeng Li’s heroic deed of slaying theNine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar as well and their eyes were filled with emotion.

Xiaomei lifted a slender finger, pointing toward Qingfeng Li. “Big Sister,” she said, “did you see? He actually killed the Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar. He killed the Golden Lion Demon Monarch, too! He saved all of our lives!”

The long-haired female self-cultivator beside her replied, “Little Sister, I saw it. He is everyone’s hero.”

Of course, whereas Qingfeng Li was a hero to the self-cultivators of Five-Poison City, he was an absolute monster to the demonic beasts. After all, he had killed their Demon Monarch and their Great Ancestor. They felt like their skies had fallen upon them.

As for the self-cultivators from other cities, they saw Qingfeng Li as a dangerous character. He dared to kill even the Avatar of a saint. This was a terribly dangerous act.

If that Saint descended upon Mars and the Crimson Fire Continent, Qingfeng Li would definitely be skinned alive.

Whether it was the admiration of those around him or the enmity, Qingfeng Li faced it all with a calm expression. None of it fazed him in the slightest.

To him, both friend and foe were only passers-by in his life. Only his own power mattered. Everything else was secondary and couldn’t help him in fundamental matters.

At this moment, Qingfeng Li had indeed encountered a dangerous situation. Over his head, masses of black clouds gathered. These clouds blocked out the sun and the sky for ten thousand kilometers around.

These were not really black clouds, but clouds of black lightning. As more and more of them gathered, both the peak and Five-Poison City were placed under a strange pressure. It was like the end of the world had come.

The excited faces of the Five-Poison City self-cultivators now turned stark white. Their eyes were filled with terror. They didn’t understand what they had done to enrage the Heavens to the extent that it would send down their Thunder of Punishment.

Qingfeng Li stood atop the mountain far from Five-Poison City. He flew straight down, landing on solid ground, and raised his head to regard the black clouds and thunder. He knew this was the Heavenly Punishment, created by the Heavens themselves, and that the target was himself. The cause was that Qingfeng Li had used the Killing God Lance, an act that the Heavens forbade.

A trace of fear appeared in the eyes of Dark Night Emperor. He was currently just a soul. If these thunderbolts landed on him, he would be blasted to nothingness for sure.

Turning into a beam of black light, Dark Night Emperor flew straight into Qingfeng Li’s long sword. He hid there, not daring to show himself.

Beside Qingfeng Li, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake also wore looks of apprehension.

Both self-cultivators and demonic beasts alike feared the Heavenly Punishment. Even Saints, when faced with the thunderbolts of Heavenly Punishment would be afraid. If they weren’t careful, they would be reduced to nothing by the thunderbolts, soul and all.

Qingfeng Li’s expression was grim. “Hurry,” he said to Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake, “get away from here. Don’t come near me. The thunder in the sky is only aimed at me.”

Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake exchanged a glance. “Take care of yourself,” they said, “we’re of no help to you even if we stay. Be careful of the thunder in the sky. That’s the symbol of the Heavenly Punishment.”

With that, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake both quickly left. They were also terrified of the Heavens’ Wrath. With their current power level, they were completely unable to withstand such a thing.

The three-eyed demonic dog left as well. It had apparently become Black Puppy’s loyal henchman. Besides, it couldn’t help either. It seemed that in all of heaven and earth, all that remained was the lone figure of Qingfeng Li.

Silently, Qingfeng Li looked up at thunder in the sky. More and more of the thunder gathered, growing more and more massive until it formed a massive thunder cluster several hundreds of thousands of feet across.

The thunder cluster contained a terrifying amount of power. It wasn’t just one bolt of lightning, but tens of thousands. Under the pressure of the thunder, cracks began to form in heaven and earth.

BANG!

With a world-shattering sound, the first thunderbolt descended. It fell straight toward Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li’s expression shifted. Without hesitation, he controlled the Killing God Lance over his head, stabbing it toward the thunderbolt. He knew that, right now, his most powerful attack was the Killing God Lance. Aside from that, he had nothing.

The Killing God Lance met the thunderbolt. Like the meeting of age-old rivals, they raged against one another, neither willing to back down.

Ten thousand years ago, in the Ancient Era, the Killing God had once battled with the Heavens. In one fell swoop, he destroyed ten thousand bolts of thunder. His name echoed throughout the entire Universe.

The Killing God Lance was extremely powerful, possessing the power to destroy heaven and earth. With one strike, it instantly shattered the thunderbolt. the remaining black light faded away into the air.

At this moment, the self-cultivators around him stared in slack-jawed shock. They had never in a million years have thought that even the thunderbolt of Heavenly Punishment would be pierced by Qingfeng Li’s Killing God Lance. That Killing God Lance, it was far too powerful. It exceeded the expectations and wildest imaginations of everyone present.

Step!

Qingfeng Li took a step back. Although he had pierced the thunderbolt with the Killing God Lance, it had been no ordinary thunder. This was the thunderbolt of Heavenly Punishment, containing a terrifying power. It had forced Qingfeng Li back a step.

When all was said and done, Qingfeng Li’s current power level was only at the fifth level of the spirit monarch realm. He hadn’t reached the level of the Killing God. If he had, then he would have no fear of the thunder in the sky.

Up above, the thunder cluster let out a piercing cry. It was a sound filled with rage.

It had thought that there was but an ant standing below and that it would be killed easily. It hadn’t expected to lose a thunderbolt. As far as the Heavens were concerned, this was an unforgivable sin, an act of disrespect to the Heavens!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Another dozen or so thunderbolts fell from the sky, headed straight at Qingfeng Li.
